Played: 2026-05-07 (Segment 1) (TikTok)
mer marcum (Meredith Marcum) is a Texas-raised, Brooklyn-based indie singer-songwriter and producer. "Holiday, 2008" is from her debut EP You Never Did Anything Wrong (2026), a Nan Goldin-inspired collection charting a journey from struggle to forgiveness. The title track and "Holiday, 2008" bookend the EP as mirrors of each other. The title names a year she would have been a child, carrying a nostalgic weight the music earns quietly. Placement: first in the show — a soft-focus, introspective opener that establishes the show's mood; the debut angle is deliberate, finding things before they're everywhere.
TikTok angle: Show opener framed as a live-show hook: mer marcum, Brooklyn, debut EP, track named after a year she was a child. Teases the rest of the show — a Bowie song he tried to bury, a Springsteen song you don't realise is a Springsteen song, new music. Delivery: weight on "Less Than Zero is on tonight. 7pm," energy building through the teases, "Live right now" as a direct invitation.
